The first 90 tonne Grove GRT8100 Rough Terrain crane manufactured outside of the USA has been completed and shipped last week.

The crane was built at the company’s plant in Niella Tanaro, Italy. Until now most Grove Rough Terrain cranes, including all large ones were built in Shady Grove, Pennsylvania.

The Niella Tanaro plant produced its first Grove RT in 2005 and has manufactured smaller models for the European and Middle East market including the RT530E-2, RT540E and RT550E. In addition to the GRT8100 the plant will build the 80 tonne GRT880, which will also continue to be manufactured in Shady Grove.

Jens Ennen, senior vice president for mobile cranes in Europe and Africa said: “We are confident that our customers in Europe, Africa, Middle East and Asia Pacific will benefit greatly from this decision. Benefits will include shorter lead times, lower shipping costs and preferential import duties in certain countries that recognise the EUR1 certificate of origin, with the specifications and quality level being as high as the rough terrain cranes manufactured in Shady Grove.”
